Montblanc - Masterpiece 642 - Fountain pen

A0000003789 The Montblanc 642 fountain pen presented in this lot shows a highly notable state of preservation, with an overall elegant and well-preserved appearance, typical of an instrument cared for over time. The gold-plated cap, with its characteristic vertical grooved finish, preserves a deep and uniform shine. The surface maintains its original lustre very well, displaying only light micro-signs of superficial use, normal in a vintage piece, with no visible loss of plating or notable dings. The clip is straight, firm and correctly aligned, maintaining its original tension. The black resin body presents an equally clean look, with a deep polish that reflects light well. Fine micro marks from use are observed, typical of the passage of time, but without cracks, deformations or structural damage. The engravings of the model “642” and the “M” brand on the rear of the body remain crisp and perfectly legible. The Montblanc emblem on the top of the cap is in very good condition, with well-defined contours and no appreciable material loss. The 14C gold Montblanc nib, engraved with the classic mountain motif and the inscriptions “14C – Montblanc – 585”, is in good visual condition, although the bi-tone has worn. The nib tines are properly aligned and the iridium tip shows good integrity. The ebonite feed remains clean and well preserved. The pen has been serviced and tested, ensuring proper writing performance. Overall, this is a very well-preserved specimen, with an aesthetically very attractive presence and with discrete signs of use consistent with its age. Conservation recommendations To preserve this piece in optimum condition it is recommended to use high-quality inks specific for fountain pens, avoid pigmented inks, clean the system with lukewarm water if not used for a while, dry properly before storing and keep it in a dry place, away from direct light and extreme temperatures.
